EMDV employs a similar strategy to other ProShares dividend grower ETFs, by picking companies that have exhibited annual increasing dividends over a number of years from an existing universe. EMDV is passively managed to pick from the MSCI Emerging Markets Index, containing a minimum of 40 stocks that have grown dividends for each of at least 7 years. These selected companies hold equal weight within the fund to prevent any one company from dominating the fund. Individual sector is capped up to 30% and a single country up to 50%. The index is rebalanced quarterly and reconstituted annually. The fund competes with DGRE alongside other dividend-growth funds in the emerging market space.
